Eleanor is T-W-O!


Our little peanut is the big 0-2! The last two years have been the most amazing of our lives, and she has brought us more happiness than we ever thought possible. We can't wait to see what the next 100 years have in store for the three of us!

Here are some things little Missy is up to:
  • She has finally come to the conclusion that hair-washing and tooth-brushing will not kill her. While I wouldn't call them pleasant experiences, we're definitely making a lot of progress on both.
  • Enjoying eating foods with extreme tastes. Our little girl can put away an entire bowl of hot sauce, and asks for more when it's gone. She also enjoys eating lemons, which is handy for us when we want to enjoy ourselves at a restaurant. She'll sit so quietly and eat lemon after lemon until her dinner comes.
  • Reading everything.
  • Sleeping until about 6:45AM, which works so much better for me than 5:20. That craziness went on for months, and I'm glad that we're taking a break from that now.
  • Pretending more and more all the time. Sometimes, nobody knows what in the world she's talking about but her. She'll occasionally become frustrated by our ignorance and say, "I 'tending, Mommy!!"

We love you so much, punkin'!!

Wow! Those pictures are soooo cute, and the books are a great prop. But... you probably shouldn't have bragged about the sleeping. Now I know why you've been up for the last two nights. :)
